Model
1891 Mosin-Nagant bolt-action
DRAGOON rifle #
35807 (7.62x54R) mfg. by
Izhevsk
in
1927. Excellent
arsenal-refurbished condition, with 95% or better bluing on
all metal and a hexagonal receiver. Totally a real original Dragoon, with ladder
rear sight & blade front sight. All matching stamped
serial numbers, with a mirror-bright bore. Buttstock and handguard has a few
minor scuffs and scraped shellac, no Finn markings at
all. Extremely rare,
how this rifle did not get upgraded to the 91/30 configuration (as they all
were) when being
refurbished is a total mystery.

GERMAN Model 98k Mauser bolt-action rifle # 6190aq (8x57mm) mfg. by Brno (code dot) in 1944. At first glance a nearly as-new all-matching 98k with full bluing and an excellent mirror-bright bore. At least that is what it was represented as in a recent Ohio auction ("book $2800"). In actuality this is a poorly done re-numbered and "humped" 98k with the Nazi eagles having the swastikas defaced with a punch by whoever captured it back in 1945. The beech stock has grasping grooves on the forend and no provision for cleaning rod. It is in excellent condition and functional except for the safety (with will not engage without some adjustment or outright replacement). This should not have "fooled" anyone into thinking it was an original "all matching" 98k (but it obviously did). Not import marked. PHOTO . . . $950. REDUCED! $825. C&R
